The Repentance of the One Who Killed a Hundred Souls and the One Who Killed Himself

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
You mentioned the man who killed a hundred souls and that he has a repentance. I heard yesterday, after the Maghrib prayer, on the Holy Quran Radio in the Kingdom, the Riyadh broadcast, that the one who kills a soul without right has no repentance. They cited the verse as evidence, as the mention of repentance was not included at the end of the verse.

The Shaykh:
The one who killed ninety-nine souls, who killed a hundred souls. This is what the brothers mention regarding disbelief in other matters. We call this Mother’s Day, we call this Daughter’s Day, and we call this Wedding Day every year, or such-and-such Day. This is wrong, and it is imitating the enemies of Allah without any basis. Rather, it must be denounced and eradicated.
